TONE SQUELCH OPERATION
■
Tone squelch operation
The transceiver is equipped with 51 CTCSS tone frequencies,
104 DTCS codes. CTCSS/DTCS operation provides com-
munication with silent standby since you will only receive calls
from group members using the same CTCSS tone frequency/
DTCS code.
NOTE:
Channels 5 and 35 are used for the emergency
channels, and CTCSS/DTCS operation is not available on
these channels.
D
Setting CTCSS tone frequency/
DTCS code
q
Select the desired channel except for channels 5 and 35.

NOTE:
The transceiver has 51 tone frequencies and con-
sequently their spacing is narrow compared with units
having 38 tones. Therefore, some tone frequencies may
receive interference from adjacent tone frequencies.
